I took Dave for his first visit to The Sauce Shoppe today. I knew that I wanted a good tasting sauce and an extremely hot sauce to use as an additive. I had a really hard time choosing between Da Bomb's Final Answer and Blair's Ultra Death Sauce. After much deliberation, fondling of both bottles multiple times, boring Dave, and pestering Sam (the owner) I went with the Ultra Death Sauce. This is the hottest sauce that Blair's makes before you get into their special reserve sauces. I've previously tried their Mega Death sauce and it was killer. But now that I'm blogging about this stuff I figure I gotta "man up" and see what this stuff is all about.
I did not take a spoon of this stuff...that would be crazy. This stuff clocks in at over 1,100,000 scoville units and...well...it will mess you up. I did try it on a toothpick and then on a cracker with a chunk of chicken. It lived up to it's Warning Label. Yes, it has a warning label telling you that it should only be used when diluted and never consumed by itself. This is not something you would put on your taco's. I'd guess about 2 drops in an entire pot of chili will get most people sweating. Now for my ratings:
Packaging: 4 stars (i really liked the coffin box and the skull key chain)
Taste: 2 (it's really just a lot of heat and it tastes like fatali peppers)
Initial Heat: 5 stars (this is the hottest stuff i've ever tried...it's 3-8 times hotter than a habanero. approach with caution.)
After Burn: 4.5 stars (again...this stuff is really hot and it sticks around for awhile. you've been warned.)
If you are interested in watching people try this sauce...here is a video.
